ARC Raiders Confirms Shrouded Sky Update for February 24 Amid Enforcement Crackdown
-

Developer Embark Studios has confirmed that ARC Raiders’ next major update, Shrouded Sky, will launch on February 24, 2026. The announcement follows closely behind the studio addressing a recent duplication exploit controversy, stating that players who abused glitches will face enforcement actions, while minor offenders may receive warnings. Embark emphasized that corrective measures are necessary to preserve balance and fairness across the game’s economy and competitive environment.
The Shrouded Sky update is set to introduce a new ARC threat, a new raider deck, an additional Expedition window, a fresh player project, and a new map condition. A brief teaser clip showing a spinning wind vane, heavy rainfall audio, and a lightning strike has sparked speculation that the next environmental modifier will involve storms or turbulent weather. While some fans are disappointed that the long-rumored Toxic Swamp condition has yet to materialize, others are eager to see how the new ARC enemy reshapes raids when the update arrives later this month.
